I thought she did a great job, but was told the headaches had nothing to do with the reason I was seeing her, which contradicted why I was referred there.

May 07, 2013

excellent

April 22, 2013

Explanations were thorough. Excellent presentation.

April 18, 2013

I did not feel that I recieved tne best of care or answers.

April 14, 2013

pa was going to call dr. smith and tell him how to work with me, but as of thurs.. there was no call or letter.

April 09, 2013

every minute I spent at this beautiful facility is more than satisfactory

March 21, 2013

I felt as if time was taken to explain my situation so that I might make a better decission regarding my own treatment. Very valuable.

March 18, 2013

Sarah explained my situation better than ANY health provider.

March 17, 2013

Excellent care

During all my visits with P.A. McEvoy she has given me the information and explanations for my condition that were clear and understandable.

Good

February 04, 2013

Sarah McEvoy was excellent in her explanations, our involvement, answering questions, and helping us see alternatives. She is very professional and empathetic.

January 29, 2013

doctor informed me I was not in pain and the pictures were all within the range of normal. the message was there was nothing she could do for me but pass me on to a someone else. Waste of time and hard earned money

January 14, 2013

I feel really good about service. If we can find a good solution, I will have died and gone to heaven. Certainly not wishing that for reality.

January 13, 2013

Dr. Goldston is probably one of the best I have seen. Very thorough.

January 12, 2013

my issues were fully explained and treatment was outlined in terms easily understood by me.

January 11, 2013

Follow up was discussed and no follow up available as discussed. Basically none of the issues we addressed were ever treated or cared for thus negating my reason for being seen. Nothing was done or resolved.

December 17, 2012

I don't hear well and was told I would have a recorder for my visit. I didn't think about that until we were about done. I think communication was okay, tho.

December 17, 2012

My experience with the Physicians Assistant was very good. My only concern is I am not familiar with the surgeon who would be performing the surgery.

November 26, 2012

All excellent

October 27, 2012

Can't say enough good things about Sarah.

October 22, 2012

I work in health care in a non-medical field and work hard to remind providers to NOT use 'medi-speak' with patients--often to no avail. This was the BEST EXPERIENCE I have ever had with a medical provider NOT speaking jargon. I have raved about it repeatedly since that day.

October 05, 2012

Sara has been extremely professional and courteous. My wife and I got her to smile with us on our first visit and found her to be charming and highly effecient. She is great in our book.

September 26, 2012

Sara McEvoy is a true Professional....and her nurse Holley.

September 11, 2012

Sara McEvoy always explains very clearly in easy to understand terms

July 24, 2012

Upon leaving the hospital I was somewhat confused as to what I was to do when arriving home. I had terrible illusions, confusion, vomiting,diarreaha, mood swings, etc. I still have confusion and terrible mood swings entering my 7 wks. after surgery

July 23, 2012

It is difficult to say much during the preliminary visits. My main concern is if there will be persistance in diagnosing what is wrong.

July 09, 2012

Sara McAvoy and Holly are great.

June 30, 2012

The care provided was far better than "5 - Very Good", it was excellent... The detail was precise, direct and to the point and very well understood... My recent appointment with Sara Mcevoy, PA was exceptional and would recommend her to one and all!!!!!!
